Will Bubic or Crotchet be worth anything next year?
Brent Hershey
12:51
Yes, def Crochet and possibly Bubic. Bubic still has a bunch to prove in my eyes

Is Sean Burke's rise for real in your opinion? It sure seems like it.
Brent Hershey
12:53
Yep; skills have improved and justify the step up. Fewer walks, more Ks, better Ball%, still 26 years old. ChiSox doing some good things with pitchers there.

How much job security does Sewald have down the stretch?
Brent Hershey
12:56
Shaky, I think, but a large part of it depends on where he is. If he stays in ARI, prospects are probably better (??). Though if they're in the race and he blows some important ones, maybe not. Conversely, he doesn't seem like the type where he would get traded and assume/take over a new team's closer role. But if he doesn't get moved, there's a world where he rides out the role with some more saves through September.

Hey Brent, thanks for taking my question. I have Bleday CIN on my roster and it appears he’s been struggling a lot lately. Would you consider replacing him with: Bohm PHI, Ward BAL, Pratt MIL, or Javis ATL? Thanks.
Brent Hershey
12:58
Would probably keep him this week as the Reds are at home and scheduled to face 6 of 7 RHP. If he hasn't come out of his slump by then, feel like it's time to move on
Brent Hershey
12:59
Wow, not going to get to everyone. Lightning round!

What do we think of Cooper Prat. Got him for 3 at Faab earlier this season, potential keeper at 6 next year in a 16 team mixed with obp?
Brent Hershey
12:59
Yes, MIL believes, so should you
Porcho Villa

New and improved Ty France, now with power and rocking a perfect QBaB over the past month. How sustainable does this age 32 breakout appear to be, and do you think he's a deadline mover?
Brent Hershey
12:59
Like it. Better for him if he stays

Is it time to completely give up on any thoughts of Roman Anthony and Garret Crochet contributing this season? Without any concrete updates who knows when or if they might return this season. And even if they do return it might be a case of too little too late, never mind what game shape they might be in or playing time limitations or restrictions they might be facing at that point.

I'm not quite ready yet to pull the plug ... but maybe I'm too stubborn

How are you feeling about the chances of Nick Pivetta returning for the final month of the season and actually contributing? He is just sitting on our league's waiver wire, and I am wondering if he could be a game changer down the stretch perhaps?
Brent Hershey
1:01
Worth a shot; is throwing now at least.

Is Dylan Crews worth adding in an OBP league? 12 teams H2H, start 4 OF
Brent Hershey
1:02
Borderline ... though love the lineup and could take a next step
Ace

Sell high on Valdez or is he a league winner?
Brent Hershey
1:02
Dunno about league winner, but I'd hold
Ace

Thoughts on Jackson Jobe's return timing and effectiveness?
Brent Hershey
1:03
Skeptical on the TJ returnees. Part of it is b/c he's not yet had MLB success

16 tm dynasty, weekly H2H 6x6 ops holds, 1 catcher…who is Esmerlyn Valdez long term? He’s coming up on 150 AB and I won’t be able to stash at that point. Trying to decide if he’s a long term building block or trade chip over next week or so. Loaded OF elsewhere- Yordan, Harris, Seiya, Chourio, Teoscar, Simpson. Thank you for help!
Brent Hershey
1:04
With that crew, yes, might be a valuable chip. Though perhaps he's gonna give you more than Teo or Simpson

AL only, OBP.  Please rank my bench guys ROS:  CCowser, Emerson, CCortes, LWade Jr.   I presume CES would be a decent flyer above all of the above?
